Or just have a small band of orks show up as a third party in every other fight. They're like that. Fukkin orks everywhere. If it shouldn't make sense that they're where they are, paint them purple. They were sneaky.

I just hope that it´s simply Owlcat being savvy enough to save the introduction of Orks for a later update.

Judging from the Alpha and some things people have found out, everything that can go wrong and gently caress with you happens. So yeah, Orcs will attack at some point.

The faction trailer seems to be showcasing the story-centric factions. Enemies like orks and necrons will likely abound but not really be playing a central part in the narrative other than as antagonists. The thing about all four of those factions showcased is they will work with human colonies in exchange for something. They're all potential allies or enemies to a rogue trader.

I dunno; this is entirely my speculation, but judging by how cagey Owlcat seems to be about the 'crons in their videos, I'm guessing the Egyptian Terminators are the big bad, or at least the endgame boss that the RT will need to gather allies to fight against. My guess is that it's your choices that will decide if you fight them alongside Imperials and Aeldari, or Chaos and Drukhari.

Recruitable Necron seriously. Before everyone jumps down my throat, the Necron dynasties fight each other all the time, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to have a lost lychguard looking to avenge his fallen dynasty or a cryptek you can hire. Necrons are cool and they are my friends.

Winds up a very 'Mr. Bearington' way, just with the party in on the joke. What? No guardsman, that's not an ork. That's Mistah Kappy. He caps heretics and xenos in the dome for us. Just a bit sickly lookin ogryn for sure, but don't let that fool you. He's very enthusiastic. Edit: His companion quest to earn his loyalty involves that he's been doing the trik so long that he starts believing he actually is Mistah Kappy. To the point of even confusing other orks they come across. What a jolly chap he is! Drakenel fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Mar 7, 2023 |

That actually sounds really grim. Like, for an ork, wouldn't slowly losing your orkyness be a kind of hell? Imagine waking up one day and not wanting to have a good scrap.

I confess, I don't know if it would be better with the party humoring the ork, the party just not noticing, or some combination of some realizing and others not.

Any alpha updates? I dug into it for a couple hours, like the idea but I did not dig into combat enough to understand if I was being strategic or getting lucky. That and the ship based combat was so awful I really didn't want to engage with it again until it gets better or speeds up.

Seems like if your disguise was based on your orkish power of belief, and you did so well that you started becoming less ork like, then you would also lose some of that power, which in turn would hurt your ability to disguise yourself, making you more orklike again. It's a vicious circle.

I suspect it's going to be a major fixture of the story given what's been shown of it so far. Maybe on the level of WotR's chapter 4?

Dark eldar have some pretty wild tech so yeah, an unavoidable trap where your group is captured and you have to escape from Commorragh would make sense. Will be interesting to see how much of their depravity OwlCat will be willing to show. I don't recall either Pathfinder game having much beyond "bad guys kill civilians" levels of brutality though so I imagine it'll be quite tame.

sebmojo posted:Why are those significant? It's a huge area in the lore that has been built up in a very coy background kinda way over decades, we very rarely see some glimpses of it or hear some mentions. It's actually a galaxy-spanning alternate dimension, not a "dark city" as it's normally referred to, including in that trailer. If every other faction got together and attacked it with everything they had, Commorragh would probably still win. Yet it is also irrelevant to the lore at the same time because it's been wasted by Games Workshop. Space Marine books outnumber every other type of Warhammer book combined, and they've neglected a lot of cool things that fans want to see. A very blank canvas to work with, and the canvas is made out of human skin and...it's moving? It's screaming? Brendan Rodgers fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Apr 19, 2023 |
